IN THE EYES OF: BACHIR TAYACHI - EP.3
Dive into the unique perspective of Tunisian artist Bachir Tayachi in this third episode of “In the Eyes Of,” where we follow his journey during an artist residency in Marseille.
Born in 1995, Bachir Tayachi lives and works in Tunis. Through his preferred mediums of photography, video, and drawing, he develops an artistic practice rooted in capturing raw emotions, while questioning the complexity of identity.
As part of the Art Explora festival’s cross residency programme, Bachir Tayachi spent a month in Marseille, where the culture, the Mediterranean sea, and the diversity of stories shaped his project.
In Marseille, his project explores identity and the relationship with the body, through multiple and contrasting experiences. Here, he has been working on his first soloshow, In My Room, which runs from October 12 to November 5 at JAOU, Biennale de Tunis.
